Threshold Implementation as a Countermeasure against Power Analysis Attacks
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
One of the usual ways to find sensitive data or secret parameters of cryptographic devices is to use their physical leakages. Power analysis is one of the attacks which lay in such a model. In comparison with other types of side-channels, power analysis is so efficient and has a high success rate. So it is important to provide a countermeasure against it. Different types of countermeasures use different methods and can be applied at different levels. Masking is an effective one which provides provable security in algorithm level. however even masked algorithms are sometimes suspected to leak kind of information in a condition that implemented in hardware leads to power analysis attacks. Threshold implementation is a way to secure hardware implementations against such probable challenges. In this paper, first we will introduce the different attack models in block ciphers, then we will concentrate on the gray-box model and explain the concepts of power analysis attacks and fundamentals of masking countermeasure. Later we will discuss the challenges of masking method in hardware implementations and introduce threshold implementation and its different aspects.

Randomized Addition-Subtraction Chains as a Countermeasure against Power Attacks
Power Analysis attacks on elliptic curve cryptosystems and various countermeasures against them, have been first discussed by Coron ([6]). All proposed countermeasures are based on the randomization or blinding of the inputparameters of the binary algorithm. We propose a countermeasure that randomizes the binary algorithm itself. Our algorithm needs approximately 9% more additions than the ordi...
متن کاملAn Improved and Efficient Countermeasure against Power Analysis Attacks
Recently new types of differential power analysis attacks (DPA) against elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) and RSA systems have been introduced. Most existing countermeasures against classical DPA attacks are vulnerable to these new DPA attacks which include refined power analysis attacks (RPA), zero-value point attacks (ZPA), and doubling attacks. The new attacks are different from classical D...
متن کاملPower analysis attacks against FPGA implementation of KLEIN
KLEIN is a family of block ciphers proposed by Zheng Gong et al. at RFIDSec 2011, and its lightweight features are suitable for resource-constrained devices. However, the original design of KLEIN does not consider the potential attacks by power analysis methods. This paper presents power analysis attacks against a FPGA implementation of KLEIN by the authors of KLEIN. The attacking strategy, att...
متن کاملAn Efficient Countermeasure against Correlation Power-Analysis Attacks with Randomized Montgomery Operations for DF-ECC Processor
Correlation power-analysis (CPA) attacks are a serious threat for cryptographic device because the key can be disclosed from data-dependent power consumption. Hiding power consumption of encryption circuit can increase the security against CPA attacks, but it results in a large overhead for cost, speed, and energy dissipation. Masking processed data such as randomized scalar or primary base poi...
متن کاملCharge-sharing symmetric adiabatic logic in countermeasure against power analysis attacks at cell level
Side-channel attacks by cryptanalysis are becoming a serious threat for cryptographers, who are designing systems that are more robust in terms of hardware and algorithm threats, aiming to thwart violations of the secrecy of securely processed information. As our contribution on a related issue, we propose a new secure logic, called charge-sharing symmetric adiabatic logic (CSSAL), for resistan...
متن کاملCountermeasure for collusion attacks against digital watermarking
Customer identification watermarking today is one of the most promising application domains of digital watermarking. It enables to identify individual copies of otherwise indistinguishable digital copies. If done without any precautions, those individual watermarking are vulnerable to a number of specialized attacks based on an attacker collecting more than one individual copy. Fingerprinting a...
